Amazon’s decision to scale back its 1P vendor program is in full effect. In the coming days, impacted brands will likely be approached by various 3P companies offering to fill the gap. Many will promise quick fixes, flashy tools, or cost savings—with the goal of earning your business. But before making any decisions, here’s a list of key factors to keep in mind: 🔍 What to Look Out For: 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗘𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆: Not everyone can get and maintain Prime. While FBA works well for smaller cubed products, many resellers promise the Prime badge for oversize products (20+ lbs and 18+ inches), and either can’t deliver or require more price concessions that lose you money. 𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 & 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀: Many 3P partners may boast about their fulfillment capabilities but lack the infrastructure to deliver on those promises. Without multiple fulfillment centers across the US, slow lead times will impact your revenue, damage customer trust, and put your Prime status at risk. 𝗗𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘀: Now more than ever, your brand needs hands-on, personalized support. Your ideal partner should have the capacity to focus on you, ideally managing fewer than 10 accounts to give the attention you deserve. With the holiday season fast approaching, it’s crucial your partner is committed to launching your strategy quickly and efficiently. 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗘𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲: Make sure your new partner has historical in-stock rates, excellent listing health, strong content fidelity, and listing liveliness. Listing your products on Amazon is one thing, driving sales is another. 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘁𝗵 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸-𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱: Everyone has at least one great case study, but true success is demonstrated by a consistent track record of driving average brand growth across various market cycles and over many years. Look for a partner with a history of sustained performance and adaptability through different economic conditions and industry shifts. 𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆: Understand how your new partner plans to handle any remaining inventory still sitting with Amazon. Will they push for a return to vendor? Slash prices to move it quickly, risking retail erosion? The ideal partner will be proactive—creating new promotions, executing inventory swaps, or leveraging alternative marketplaces to strategically move inventory without sacrificing value. 𝗔𝗺𝗮𝘇𝗼𝗻 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀: Not all sellers are able to list your products; and if they do, they may be shut down if they don’t meet certain standards. You’ll need a partner who is battle-tested and trustworthy—someone who can protect your brand while ensuring uninterrupted marketplace access. Confirm that a listing or offer can be created before committing to a partner and inquire about their success rate in maintaining brand standards on Amazon.

As we gear up for one of the biggest ecommerce events of the year, it's crucial to ensure your product listings are optimized and ready to convert. Think of Prime Day like a championship game—the success relies on the preparation you’ve done throughout the year. If your listings aren't fine-tuned, you're leaving money on the table. 1️⃣ Optimize your Product Detail Pages: Make sure your titles, keywords, images, and descriptions are on point. 2️⃣ Monitor account health: Stay ahead of potential issues to ensure there are no missed opportunities. 3️⃣ Protect your Buy Box: Don't let rogue sellers erode your pricing or customer trust. Prime Day is about more than just deals—it's about delivering a seamless customer experience. Is your brand ready to make the most of it? https://hubs.li/Q02SqyxZ0

Does shipping speed impact conversions and marketing costs? Absolutely—and here’s the proof. In the past, this furniture brand struggled with shipping times of 5 days or more. With big-and-bulky products weighing over 66 pounds, fast shipping seemed out of reach. Then they teamed up with Spreetail. Leveraging our robust fulfillment network, they quickly achieved 1–2-day shipping, which led to a 138% increase in conversions and slashed marketing costs from 40% to nearly 6%. The takeaway? Faster, more efficient shipping means better sales and lower costs. As the #1 omni-channel ecommerce accelerator, Spreetail delivers these results for our brand partners every day.

As a brand, understanding your competitive landscape and mastering your digital shelf is crucial to staying ahead and driving conversions. Outside of evaluating key factors like content quality, advertising, shipping speed, product features, logistics, and how your product is represented, pricing plays a huge role. But it’s not about being the cheapest or the most expensive. It’s about knowing how your product compares and having a clear, data-driven pricing strategy. What other products are your customers considering? Are their review counts growing faster than yours? Are they offering more promotions or selling more units? Evaluate how you measure up, and identify areas for improvement to ensure you stand out.
